Beauty advent 22 part 2 (massive spoilers)

I don't know the etiquette of starting a runover of someone else's thread. I hope this is OK.

Reminder advent22 gives a hand-wash and handcream free gift on space nk.

I bought it, but now I have alight regret. I should have held out to see what harrods had.

The CEO cream wasn't 5oz as had been trailed on many calendar sites, but 0.5oz, 15ml. 5oz would have been a ridiculous size so that makes sense.

The perfume one was on by about 9. If you want it, keep refreshing lols. Of course it might be available for days.

I just checked Cult Beauty there again. It says it’s still in stock and only a max of 5 per customer is allowed Confused (wonders what anyone would do with 5 of them).
It said one per customer last week.

Hopefully they’ll all slash their prices soon

So you have a link for it please? I love marzipan.

I bought it via John Lewis this year because I was ordering a couple of other bits, so got free shipping: www.johnlewis.com/niederegger-cafe-chocolate-advent-calendar-525g/p6212924#product

Chocolates Direct also has it in right now: www.chocolatesdirect.co.uk/product-details/search/products/12741/Niederegger-Cafe-Assorted-Marzipan-Advent-Calendar-500g.htm

OchonAgusOchonOh · 17/10/2022 09:25

@bewarethetides chocolates direct don't ship to Ireland but at least I know what I'm looking for now and should find a source.

My mother loves marzipan so I'm going to try and get it for her. I got get a smaller one a few years ago and she loved it.

Just had an email with a discount code from Cult beauty for £20 off a £60 spend and it works on the advent.

Piccalino3 · 17/10/2022 07:25

Anyone know what time Harrods is being released at? I saw it was today on ReallyRee but no time...

I heard that this was being released on 24th, but you may want to keep checking just in case it's released today!

Piccalino3 · 17/10/2022 10:39

@MidnightMeltdown thanks for that. It actually doesn't look like it's being released today as has been early in the past. 24th would be better for me as I keep changing my mind.... I'll keep stalking anyway....

Adventadventures · 17/10/2022 11:30

Anyone interested in Sephora. The advent calander is on topcashback with up to 20% off . I haven’t bought it so don’t know if you actually get 20% back but if you were going to buy it anyway . Definately worth using as could potentially bring it down to £111

CorporateBull · 17/10/2022 11:59

Wow. Cult Beauty still on sale weeks later and with a discount? That’s the economy right there.

I didn't think it offered great value for money compared to others around that price point

CorporateBull · 17/10/2022 12:13

I’m not sure it’s ever been about that. It’s been THE calendar that sold out in hours every year since it launched. Most buyers don’t pay much attention to the products.

Would you mind sharing your code, please? Or is it only one per customer?

I didn’t get any email. They must have picked customers at random

I don’t think it is one use - it was just a generic marketing email- the code is CBXOCT - hopefully it will work x

TheDuchessOfMN · 17/10/2022 12:42

Thank you! It takes €20 off it in my basket.

It’s still far too expensive for me but only because I already have Space NK. Hopefully someone else will get to benefit from it

Talisin · 17/10/2022 12:42

I had the same code - it was lurking at the bottom of an email about the Nars holiday collection.

FredaFox · 17/10/2022 15:50

Thanks to those who recommended the liberty beauty drop, I've only done my first £20 and had a text today that my box is on its way!! Exciting!! I wasn't expecting it

Talisin · 17/10/2022 12:42

Same.

The details are code CBXOCT gets £10 off a £60 spend or £20 off a £100 spend. One use per customer. Valid until 23:59 tomorrow (18 Oct).

MidnightConstellation · 17/10/2022 21:18

I’ve been thinking of signing up too but want to know what sort of things are in the boxes. Please keep us posted!

Zeeza · 18/10/2022 07:18

Boots No7 ACs released for people who signed up for the waiting list.

They look good if you're in the market for a no7 calendar.

LF £75.05 with code LFTFMAGGIES. I saw this in HUKD.

Zeeza · 18/10/2022 07:48

Good code. I had another look though, and it really isn't the calendar for me. I think I'd buy it at about 30 quid lols. Just so much I wouldn't use.

Is anyone else on here buying calendars to split up and sell? I've received the Space NK one which was £170 with discount and Ndulge points, picked out the blusher, olaplex, shower gel, face oil and paula's choice to keep and listed the rest which hopefully should get me my money back.

Already made my money back on JL and kept quite a few things for myself.

Building up a nice stash of stuff for myself, probably won't make a profit as I'll keep the ones I like and may not sell everything at listed price but I'm having fun trying.

Looking at the Liberty and Harrods ones next but I'm not sure there are enough well known brands on there to make my money back.

Has anyone tried the LiB one, which has a few full sizes.

OverTheHillAndDownTotherSide · 18/10/2022 08:26

My LiB one arrived last week. It’s ENORMOUS. Hadn’t thought about selling any of it, but intrigued now! Assume best to do it before Xmas then after?

I'm seriously tempted by the Sephora one and its a good price too. Does anyone know if there are any discount codes?
